[QUOTE="quackhead, post: 7857537, member: 573547"] [quote name='ShankyMcPimp']no you are dead on!!!! I like the amp I have selected with help of "hispls" I may need to hold off on the Minotaur due to budget and add later. Thoughts? I need help at this point knowing JL alternatives if possible and knowing if these components would work together. I would be open o buying used but how do I know if I am getting a good set of used speakers. that sounds dicey. I like the cheaper jL 6.5 price mentioned earlier. that saves 400. minotaur on hold saves 600.00. getting close. Also, if anyone knows of a Memphis installer that is good, that would help. I am capable of installing but would need help with the wiring. I can pull the interior and dampen the sound. it is the details that count.... getting nervous... this seems more complicated that i thought. Thanks all....your help is appreciated....[/QUOTE] you are welcome. like it has been said, focus on your front stage midbass & imaging.
